Those five second clips are annoying. And to me, they're kinda creepy when you play them one after the other, hearing the same music and announcer voice saying the same thing......

I can't really even say they're better than nothing. Buuuuut at least this picture of Reshiram and Zekrom looks cool, imo.

By the way... how are TV Tokyo shows ranked on TV Tokyo's website? Is it by webpage or something? How can Best Wishes be ranked #1 when it hasn't even aired yet? XD (Look on the bottom left of the page.)

That i assume is air cutter, but with new animation. I know it has looked like sharp "S"s in the past, but move animations change all the time. Of course it could be a new move, or even razor wind or air slash, but my bet's air cutter.

It can be Air Cutter, Razor Wind or a new, as-of-yet unrevealed move.

but the bat is doing something way different.

No, it is the same (in general), the only difference would be possibly the different animators or even the weird angle.

But the attack in the huge preview is still the same buzz saw shaped attack, The razor sharp edges may not be as clear cut as the picture you provided but it is the same attack and still has edges.

Had tinypic not failed on me, I might've been able to show a screenshot of Koromori's attack in the huge B/W preview.

I'll agree though on one thing, they are two different scenes, but they really are the same attack.

I don't know what you're looking at or whether it changed but #1 on the rankings is something Pirmeki- OH, okay Anime was in the second "frame" there while "live action" is in the first "frame" okay, I get it now. Well some of the time, the "ranking" could deal with anticipation of said show. Maybe Japanese Fans are heavily anticipating the show, and it could also refer to the website itself. Because it is brand new, maybe it has a higher ranking.

I mean think about it in comparison to something like post count on Serebii Forums. If you're brand new and post 10 posts a day, it's obviously going to reflect that. But how about someone who barely shows up posts 1 or 2 posts a month but was on longer (like a year). The new "eager" poster will have more "posts a day". So maybe due to the anticipation, maybe the B/W website is getting more views a day then say D/P (since there really is no point to check it everyday; since they hardly update), but who knows when the official B/W website will update, so we check it everyday and very often. (I mean obviously the D/P page did most likely get more views in total, but maybe the ratings is reflective on a weekly views or daily views, which means eventually B/W would beat it since 1 million people could view it in a week, while probably half or even less would check the D/P page especially since it's coming to a close) Assuming of course that it is website ratings of the show and not simply show ratings, because in that case the only thing I would think of is anticipation.

So Meganon (who has posted some reliable info before), said this:

There will be also a special program on 16th September, but I don't know what it's exactly.

Hmm...does the special program relate to Pokemon? Or would it be that Naruto thing I've heard people talk about.

It's not surprising news in terms of the date we're seeing this but an hour special sounds awesome!

What's the source for this? Also, I wonder about the 16.9 - is it something Pokémon related? most likely not, but it'd be nice to know what airs then...

I finally saw a BW teaser. It's nice to know that someone who at least resembles a black person will be making an appearance. It only took nearly 700 episodes. I guess her name is Airisu, and while that name is obviously Iris, I get the feeling Pokemon USA will probably still change her name.

*Facepalms* Have you already forgotten about Brock? Iris has about the same skin tone as he does, so it's nothing new as far as the anime is concerned. Also, if anything, Iris reminds me of Kaolla Su from Love Hina the most. Tanned hyperactive (Read: Genki Girl] character -- if she does indeed stay the hyperactive type as shown in the small clip. There's also this bit to consider as well

There's also the tanned Nurse Joy from 'The Joy of Pokemon' episode to consider, seeing as she was athletic and stuff.


As for the clips up on the official site, I was honestly amused by the Minezumi one for some reason. I guess it's because of the group charge. XD

Well I don't know but Meganon probably does. But it's probably reliable considering he's the one that showed everyone that DP commercial with Heracross vs. Darkrai as well as giving us some titles if I recall correctly.

It's not too much of a surprise anyway but it's nice to know it's a one hour special.

I'd still like to get a source and also know what airs on the 16.9
I really hope that maybe somehow 16.9 is also something Pokémon-related...

Probably just some recap of DP as a whole or something. I doubt its a new special or anything.

Right now I see Ash having

1. Pikachu: no explanation needed
2. Mamepato: regional bird poke
3. Mijumaru: he always gets a starter, and it would be nice to see him train up the water starter for once
4. Hihidaruma: he has had every primate based pokemon so far, and he always has a fire type on his team
5. Meguroko: to be honest it just would fit in his team. Plus Ash has a lot of experience with ground types and has never trained a dark type.

I think his 6th pokemon is yet to be seen.

I actually hope you are right about this. I think this would be a good team for Satoshi. Except I am not a huge fan of Hihidaruma.

But I love the idea of Satoshi getting Meguroko. It looks like a fun pokemon, and it will be interesting to see him training a dark type.

Yeah, I think Meganon has an account here. Maybe try asking him (or her)? I'm sorry I'm not much help, I just relay the information back here.

And I agree, it'd be cool if 16.9 is something pokemon related too.

I'd prefer that over a break for Naruto or something like that
A long double ep recapping the whole DP series would be awesome... though the previous recap eps were counted as real episodes, while 9.9 is already stated to be DP's final ep...
Or maybe they can do a big recap of the WHOLE SHOW to prepare us to BW ? they did air in Japan a short recap of the original+AG on the day DP started...
It can also be a brand new anime content... I know it's VERY unlikely, but if we're not going to see the game hero and heroine, I'd love to see them or at least in the heroine in a TV-movie like Raikou's one
If none of that, they can at least make a special where they talk about the upcoming new series and games...
I really hope anything of this happens, or whatever else they could do that's Poké-related and that we don't get a break again... I'm sick of breaks
I hope after all of this they just stick to one ep every week with almost no breaks at all (and they should make ep for every break with a double airing, not with trivia or random stuff like they did during DP)

Meh, couldn't we just a get a transition episode between Isshu and Kanto? The episode would introduce some old characters, we'd see Ash's old Pokemon again and we would find out Ash's reason for going to Isshu.

this, I would like to see... unless the reason would be stated already in the final DP episode... but hey, transitions are always welcome. :ksmile:

I think you guys are confusing that special thing on the 16th with the Naruto hour long episodes that day.

There's another Naruto special? Is it a movie? Or just really a special? If its a special, I hope its not a filler ><

I just remembered the storyboard artist who originally leaked the picture of Iris and Brock's departure also mentioned, "the new rival who is similar to Paul is there also."

And I was just thinking, could it be the Darkrai trainer? If Ash loses to him in the league, is it possible that guy will continue to be Ash's rival in the next arc? He has no backstory and hasn't spoken yet, so it seems weird to me.
